Bell peppers offer sweetness without heat.

Heat about a tablespoon of canola oil in a pan over medium-high heat.

Take two 8-inch flour tortillas and spread a handful of shredded cheddar cheese on one tortilla.

Optionally, spread some vegetarian refried beans over the cheese to add protein.

Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape, pressing it down gently.

Place the folded tortilla in the heated pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown.

Flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

Remove from the pan and slice into eighths.

Serve with salsa and sour cream.
